Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base
Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base. It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and the base is: commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2 Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200 Prepare v4.1.3-rt3 Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We should apply another opnfv project repo in future. Change-Id: I87543d81c9df70d99c5001fbdf646b202c19f423 Signed-off-by: Yunhong Jiang <yunhong.jiang@intel.com>

+This document gives a brief rationale for the TINY_RCU test cases.
+
+
+Kconfig Parameters:
+
+CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC -- Do all three and none of the three.
+CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT
+CONFIG_RCU_TRACE
+
+The theory here is that randconfig testing will hit the other six possible
+combinations of these parameters.
+
+
+Kconfig Parameters Ignored:
+
+CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD
+CONFIG_PROVE_RCU
+
+ In common code tested by TREE_RCU test cases.
+
+CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_SYSIDLE
+CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU
+CONFIG_RCU_USER_QS
+
+ Meaningless for TINY_RCU.
+
+CONFIG_RCU_STALL_COMMON
+CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST
+
+ Redundant with CONFIG_RCU_TRACE.
+
+CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
+CONFIG_PREEMPT
+CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU
+CONFIG_SMP
+CONFIG_TINY_RCU
+CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU
+CONFIG_TREE_RCU
+
+ All forced by CONFIG_TINY_RCU.
